Definition of DNA POLYMERASE. : any of several polymerases that promote replication or repair of DNA usually using single-stranded DNA as a template. ADVERTISEMENT.
The DNA polymerases are enzymes that create DNA molecules by assembling nucleotides, the building blocks of DNA. These enzymes are essential to DNA replication and usually work in pairs to create two identical DNA strands from one original DNA molecule. During this process, DNA polymerase âreadsâ the existing DNA strands to create two new strands that match the existing ones. Every time a cell divides, DNA polymerase is required to help duplicate the cellâs DNA, so that a copy of the original DNA molecule can be passed to each of the daughter cells.
